Somehow, I just can't believe the NEA is going to enjoy this.

[steplock]

Wait until you see tomorrow's Letter to the Editor! ;>)

[billhilly]

I'll be sure to read it.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Are you Margaret? Sorry if I'm missing something... I'm having a slow cognition day :o)

[The Californian]

Please add me to the ping list for these letters!

[steplock]

I'm not Margaret Brogley. I'm just posting her articles / Opinions /Letters for her.

I do it for several people - most wish to remain annonymous - thanks to the history in Arkansas of those who "buck the system".

[kayak]

If you're going to have a ping list, I'd love to be on it. This sounds like it could be fun ...... :-)

[kayak]

bttt

[homeschool mama]

Thank you for the ping, kay.

steplock, this homeschool mama would *love* to be on your 'Meet Margaret Brogley' ping list. :oD

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Thanks for the explanation. Appreciate! Considering the people you are posting for are from Arkansas....and the "rich" history of the "evil ones" and what happens to those who betray them.. I don't blame those who wish to remain anonymous.

Do you ever read any Florence King?

[homeschool mama]

No, I haven't heard of Florence King. Do tell! I'm a voracious reader and always willing to check out something new. :o)

[steplock]

If I knew HOW to make a 'ping list' here I would - Anyone know how?

the articles will be keyworder to SCHOOL, HOMESCOOL, EDUCATION, BROGLEY (from now on)

Florence King wrote "Confessions of a Failed Southern Lady" and a host of other books that are somewhere between auto-biography and social commentary. She is very funny and a lot of her remarks, particularly in the book I just mentioned, are aimed at the public school system. In fact, it's interesting to see the long view through her eyes, I think she's just 10 years younger than Margaret Brogely. She went to school when the Dewey-ites were just coming into power, and King spends a lot of time describing how their foolishness made school miserable for her. It's a funny book.

I did it once, though I no longer have one..and I just copied names and kept adding them to a list I would send to myself in freepmail. It takes some work in the beginning. There may be an easier way.. I will ping this to JohnHuang2 and MeeknMing as they are the KINGS of PINGERS :o)

Perhaps they can advise if there is an easier way to develop a ping list.

I do know this.. it is best if you do a list where people REQUEST TO be ON IT. Don't ping unsolicited people. They don't seem to like that.

:o)

FREGARDS.. and good luck.

If you figure out how to do that ping list (I can't help, having never made a ping list myself,) please put me on it! Thanks!

Pretty much what you said there VH&W. When I start a ping list it usually is from a thread. For example, I post almost all of the articles on the Texas executions that are carried out. One Freeper suggested I should start a ping list for Texas Executions. I had thought about it, but hadn't started one yet. So I replied to him that I would and he'd be the FIRST on the list and noted that if anyone else wanted on to let me know. I added others that were 'regulars' on the threads and on my first ping I noted that this was a new ping list and to let me know if anyone wants ON or OFF the list.

If I were to start another ping list that's what I'd do. Pokey78 has a number of ping lists to regular columns too (Mark Steyn, Fred Barnes, Charles Krauthammer, etc.). That's how he does his lists too, I think.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I thougth so. Once you get the big parts done it is easy to add on. Good luck steplock. Thanks tons MeeknMing the King of Ping :o)
